Glory to God: The Presbyterian Hymnal

Product Descriptions

Glory to God will be published in fall 2013. This new book of hymns, psalms, and spiritual songs for the Presbyterian Church will include approximately 800 musical selections and worship materials. Comprehensive indexes will be included.

Pew edition
The pew edition will be available in either of two colors, red and purple, in either of two versions: a Presbyterian version and an ecumenical version. The Presbyterian version will be called Glory to God: The Presbyterian Hymnal and will be stamped with the Presbyterian seal on the spine. The ecumenical version will be called Glory to God: Hymns, Songs, and Spiritual Songs, and will not have the seal. The contents of both editions are identical. Hardback.

Accompaniment edition
The accompaniment edition will contain full accompaniments to all selections in the Pew edition, written to match the style of the hymn or song. The edition will be presented in landscape format with a durable hardcover concealed spiral binding. It will be produced in two volumes for easier placement and use. Available in either red or purple.

Enlarged print edition
This 8.5 x 11 edition of the hymnal will contain all words and music from the Pew edition, enlarged in a more-readable type. Also useful for worship leaders or musicians. Produced in a convenient loose leaf format.

Companion edition
This handy reference tool will include the history and context of all hymns presented in Glory to God. Written by noted hymnologist Carl Daw, this resource will be treasured by music directors, worship leaders, pastors, music teachers, and others. Contains information helpful for worship planning, bulletin inserts, research, and Christian education. Hardback.

Pulpit/Gift edition
This beautifully-crafted edition will include the complete contents of Glory to God in an elegant and ecologically friendly faux-leather cover, gilded edging, and ribbon markers. It is ideal for preachers and worship leaders or as a gift for pastors, new church members, choir members, or others.

Electronic edition
A web-based electronic edition of Glory to God will be available in fall 2013. Users will be able to search all indexes, view hymns, listen to audio clips, and, where rights allow, insert hymns into bulletins.
